Definitions

  • the present invention relates to cellular radio communications, and more particularly, to downlink radio transmission where multiple antennas are employed at the radio base station.
  • Shared downlink radio channels like the high speed-downlink shared channel (HS-DSCH) employed in third generation, wideband code division multiple access (WCDMA) systems, offer high data transmission rates, reduced round-trip delays, and high capacity, at least with respect to a typical transport channel.
  • the HS-DSCH supports higher order modulation to achieve higher user and system throughput, fast link adaptation that takes into account the instantaneous quality of the radio propagation environment and adapts the coding and modulation scheme accordingly, and hybrid-ARQ with soft combining to decrease retransmissions and thereby reduce delay.
  • HS-DSCH mobile radio users periodically measure the instantaneous radio channel quality of a pilot channel broadcast by a radio base station, which is called Node B in the WCDMA specification.
  • the mobile users periodically report a channel quality indicator (CQI) based upon the measured radio channel transmission.
  • CQI channel quality indicator
  • the base station responsible for handling the HS-DSCH uses the CQI to assign an appropriate coding and modulation scheme. It may also use the CQI to decide which mobile radio should be scheduled to receive downlink transmission over the HS-DSCH.
  • Various scheduling strategies can be used for transmitting over the high speed shared channel.
  • An adaptive antenna system can change its beam characteristics in response to changes in the network.
  • An antenna beam is any signal transmission deliberately covering only part of a cell.
  • a cell is a coverage area of the base station. Because the base station can detect the direction of a mobile station, it can transmit dedicated information in an antenna beam towards the desired mobile station. By directing the signal just toward its recipient, the interference in the network can be substantially reduced.
  • Adaptive antennas can significantly increase the data capacity in a cellular radio network.
  • Figure 1 illustrates a base station with three cells or sectors. In the upper, left-hand sector cell, the base station transmits a sector antenna beam which covers most of that sector cell. An adaptive antenna array in the right-most sector cell transmits five, relatively narrow antenna beams 1-5. Most antenna patterns contain a main lobe and several minor lobes commonly known as side lobes. The term "beam” refers to the main lobe. Eight mobile radios, (a mobile radio is referred to in WCDMA as a user equipment (UE)), are shown in or close to the right-most sector cell and are identified as U1-U8.
  • UE user equipment
  • Figure 2 illustrates an example situation where mobile radio U3 is scheduled for a current time instant to receive information over the high-speed downlink shared channel with maximum power. This is illustrated by the main and side lobes of beam B2 being represented in a bold solid line, with the remaining four beams B1, B3, B4, B5 carrying little or no power during this scheduled time period.
  • all mobile radios including the scheduled mobile radio U3, report to the base station their current or instantaneous detected channel quality indicator (CQI) based on the quality of reception of the base station's pilot signal.
  • CQI detected channel quality indicator
  • the base station transmits information to the next-scheduled mobile radio over the HS-DSCH channel at maximum power during the next scheduling time period.
  • the next-scheduled mobile radio is U5 because at the time the scheduling decision was made, U5 had the highest CQI.
  • Beam 3 B3, which encompasses mobile U5, is selected based on beam quality information detected at the base station.
  • mobile radio U5 is at a "null" between the main lobe of beam B2 and a side lobe of beam B2. That null means U5 experiences low interference from the beam B2 transmission.
  • mobile radio U4 which is relatively close to mobile radio U5, reports a much lower CQI because the main lobe of beam B2 creates a high interference at U4 on the order of 15 dB.
  • the flashlight effect can be further illustrated using the example transmission scheduling table shown in Figure 4 .
  • six mobiles U1-U6 report detected channel quality indicators (CQI) for each transmission time interval (TTI) TTI1-TTI7.
  • CQI channel quality indicators
  • TTI1-TTI7 transmission time interval
  • the highest CQI for each TTI is underlined, and the scheduled mobile user for each TTI is circled. In this example, it takes two TTIs for the mobile user with the highest CQI to be scheduled for transmission over the HS-DSCH channel.
  • the table illustrates that the scheduled mobile radio does not always have the highest CQI during its scheduled TTI.
  • mobile U1 is scheduled to receive a transmission during TTI 5.
  • Mobile U2 which is served by the same beam B1 as mobile U1, reports a very low CQI of 5 during TTI 5 because it is being temporarily "blasted" by the beam B1 transmission to mobile user U1.
  • mobile U6 reports the highest CQI and is scheduled for TTI 7. Absent the flashlight effect of transmitting to mobile U1 during TT15, mobile U2 would have reported a much higher CQI.
  • the document EP0841827 discloses a method in a radio communication system with a radio base station with multiple antennae associated with a cell, wherein the base station receives reports from mobile radios of the received signal strength.
  • the base station selects for each transmission time interval one mobile radio to receive a transmission from each antenna beam and the information is transmitted to the selected mobile radio for each antenna beam during the predetermined transmission time interval.
  • the beam formers "shape" each downlink beam and each uplink beam to maximize the signal to interference ratio.
  • the document US 2003/0081575 discloses a method of allocating a cahnnelisation code to one of a plurality of user terminals, a CDMA telecommunication network, and a CDMA telecommunications base station.
  • the method comprises selecting according to a predetermined rule a terminal to which the code is to be allocated.
  • the user terminal is selected following an inspection of a record kept to determine which user terminals are in which group of terminals that can possibly use the code.
  • the inspection determines which user terminal in the group is associated with the code.
  • the flashlight effect is intense interference detected by a mobile causing that mobile to report a low CQI for a short time period which results from the mobile being "flashed" by a brief downlink transmission to another scheduled mobile.
  • the flashlight effect is a serious problem in fixed multi-beam systems, adaptive antenna systems, and transmit diversity systems.
  • the flashlight effect is overcome by selecting multiple mobile radios to receive a transmission over a shared radio channel during a predetermined transmission time interval. Information is transmitted over the shared radio channel to the multiple mobile radios using multiple antenna beams so that interference from the transmission appears as white additive Gaussian noise in time and in space in the cell.
  • the "flashlight effect" caused by a single beam transmission over the shared channel that would detrimentally impact a mobile radio's detection of channel quality is avoided.
  • Mobile radios detect the channel quality of a pilot or other broadcast signal transmitted in the cell and report to the radio network. Shared channel transmissions are scheduled to multiple mobile radios for each time interval based on the received reports. One mobile radio is selected for transmission for each antenna beam based on the received reports. The information is transmitted over the shared channel using each antenna beam to each of the selected mobile radios during the predetermined time interval.
  • the shared radio channel radio resources are allocated to the multiple mobile radios using a resource allocation scheme.
  • An optimal coding and modulation scheme is preferably selected for each scheduled mobile radio to achieve an acceptable error rate.
  • Example resource allocation schemes include dividing the shared radio channel resources evenly between each selected mobile radio.
  • the resource allocation scheme may divide the shared radio channel resources in proportion to each of the mobile radio's reported detected channel quality, e.g., in accordance with a "water pouring" distribution algorithm.
  • the shared channel resources may be divided using a non-linear relationship between two or more of the following: amount of channel resources, throughput, quality of service, and detected channel quality. That relationship may be stored in a lookup table for easy application. If a change is detected in radio channel conditions, the look-up table is preferably updated.
  • an example resource allocation scheme includes allocating one scrambling code to the shared radio channel.
  • One or more different channelization codes associated with that scrambling code are allocated to each antenna beam during each predetermined time interval.
  • a different scrambling code may be allocated for each antenna beam during each predetermined time interval.
  • the flashlight effect may be avoided by carefully planning in space and/or in time which beam is used for transmission.
  • Another technique for avoiding the flashlight effect employs a beam transmission sequence order. Multiple mobile radios may be selected to receive a transmission over a shared radio channel using a beam transmission sequence order. Mobile users belonging to a selected beam may be scheduled. The beam selection is decided using a beam sequence number. Information is transmitted over the shared radio channel to each of the mobile radios in the cell following the beam transmission sequence order. Beam switching in accordance with the beam transmission sequence order occurs over multiple transmission time intervals so that interference from the transmission appears as white noise in time and in space.
  • a shared channel scheduling procedure (block 10) is illustrated in flow chart form in Figure 5 .
  • a shared radio channel is the high-speed downlink shared channel (HS-DSCH) described above.
  • HS-DSCH high-speed downlink shared channel
  • Multiple mobile radios are selected to receive transmissions over the shared radio channel for a predetermined transmission time interval (block 12).
  • One mobile radio is selected to receive transmission over the shared channel per each antenna beam. Transmissions over the shared radio channel to the selected mobile radios use multiple antenna beams during that transmission time interval so that the interference caused by that shared channel transmission appears as white noise in space and time (block 14).
  • the noise is rendered white additive Gaussian noise.
  • the multiple beam-to-multiple radio transmission over the shared channel ensures that intra-cell (and consequently inter-cell) interference appears spatially and temporally as white.
  • intra-cell and consequently inter-cell interference appears spatially and temporally as white.
  • system resources e.g., power, codes, coding and modulation schemes, etc.
  • Figure 6 illustrates the multiple antenna beam transmission in one transmission time interval. Of eight mobile users U1-U8, five are selected to receive transmissions from the five beams B1-B5 during a transmission time interval over the shared radio channel.
  • the transmission from beam B1 is directed to mobile U2; the transmission from beam B2 is directed to mobile U3; the transmission from beam B3 is directed mobile U5; the transmission from beam B4 is directed to mobile U6; and the transmission from beam B5 is directed to mobile U8.
  • a control network node 24 couples a base station 22 to other nodes and networks.
  • a network control node may be, for example, a radio network controller (RNC).
  • Base station 22 includes a supervisory controller 28 for controlling the overall operation of the base station.
  • a channel quality controller 36 collects channel quality information provided from various mobile stations 26.
  • the channel quality controller 36 may receive channel quality indicators (CQI's) from mobile stations.
  • One or more transmit data buffers 38 store data for transmission over a shared radio channel to multiple mobile stations.
  • a transmission scheduler 30 selects mobiles to receive transmissions that have a maximum CQI for each beam.
  • the scheduler 30 also monitors the availability of shared radio channel resources 32 and maintains an adaptive lookup table 34.
  • the lookup table 34 may be used in one non-limiting example to determine how shared radio channel resources may be allocated to each selected mobile for each transmission time interval.
  • Signal processing and radio transceiving circuitry 40, a beam forming network 42, and an antenna array 44 are employed to transmit multiple antenna beams to the selected mobile users for each transmission time interval.
  • a mobile station 26 (sometimes referred to as a user equipment (UE) in the wide-band CDMA context) includes a supervisory controller 46 for controlling the overall operation of the mobile. It also includes a channel quality detector 48 used to detect the quality of the base station pilot channel and provide channel quality information back to the base station via the signal processing and transceiving circuitry 50.
  • One example method is for the mobile station to measure the signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) of the received base station pilot. Knowing the average power allocated to a high speed-downlink shared packet channel (HS-DSCH), the mobile deduces the signal to noise ratio of the HS-DSCH. That HS-DSCH SNR is converted to a CQI value which is reported to the base station every transmission time interval.
  • SNR signal-to-noise ratio
  • the channel quality controller 36 groups received CQI reports from all shared channel mobile users into a number of groups corresponding to the number of antenna beams transmitting over the shared radio channel. This channel quality information is provided by channel quality controller 36 to the scheduler 30 which identifies the mobile radios to receive transmissions over each of the antenna beams transmitting over the shared radio channel. In one non-limiting example, the scheduler 30 selects for each transmission time interval (TTI) the mobile user having the highest CQI for each beam group.
  • TTI transmission time interval
  • the shared channel transmissions to each selected mobile via its corresponding antenna beam occur in this non-limiting example two TTI's after the CQI's are reported.
  • the scheduler 30 also monitors the available channel resources 32 and employs some type of resource allocation method for allocating resources for each antenna beam transmission for each transmission time interval.
  • One possible method is "round robin" scheduling where resources are scheduled sequentially.
  • a round robin algorithm can be applied per beam. Users are regrouped per set with each set corresponding to a specific beam. The round robin scheduler is applied to each set so that mobile users in each set are scheduled in a time-multiplexed fashion.
  • Another example scheduling method is to divide the shared channel radio resources evenly between the selected multiple mobile radios.
  • Yet another example shared channel resource allocation scheme is to divide the shared radio channel resources in proportion to each mobile radio's reported detected channel quality.
  • a well-known "water filling" algorithm may be used to implement this particular allocation scheme.
  • the resources may be divided using a non-linear relationship between two or more parameters such as the following: channels, power, throughput, quality of service, detected channel quality, etc.
  • an optimal coding and modulation scheme is preferably also selected for each scheduled mobile radio in order to achieve an acceptable error rate.
  • the radio channel resources include scrambling codes.
  • Each scrambling code has an associated channelization code tree.
  • One example shared channel resource allocation scheme allocates a single scrambling code to the shared radio channel.
  • One or more different channelization codes from the single scrambling code tree are allocated to each antenna beam for use during the predetermined transmission time interval.
  • multiple different scrambling codes may be allocated for each beam during the predetermined transmission time interval.
  • Using multiple scrambling codes as compared to a single scrambling code for the shared radio channel resources increases the intra-cell interference, but also ensures stable spatial and temporal interference patterns in the cell without degrading the system throughput. In this way, the flashlight effect is mitigated, and system performance is considerably improved.
  • a nonlinear relationship may be used to divide the shared channel resources.
  • SNR signal-to-noise ratio
  • the number of channelization codes or scrambling codes needed to compensate varies depending on the current quality of service requirements. For a higher quality of service, the number of codes may need to increase by 75% to offset the 50% decrease in channel condition.
  • Figure 9 shows an example where a nonlinear relationship is defined using an adaptive lookup table 34.
  • the CQI's reported from the mobile stations, the available shared channel resources, and one or more measurements are received as an inputs.
  • Example measurements may include, for example, mobile user location, mobile speed, throughput, etc.
  • the throughput is a function of the number of channelization codes or scrambling codes allocated to a particular mobile user, but it also depends upon the current radio channel conditions.
  • the output of the adaptive lookup table 34 includes a power P k , a modulation and coding scheme MSC, and scrambling and channelization codes C.
  • the lookup table 34 is preferably constructed to associate the received CQI with the least amount of system resources to ensure a high throughput.
  • the lookup table 34 is dynamically updated to match the current radio channel conditions.
  • One method for deriving an optimal lookup table is based on "reinforcement learning" where for each action taken, e.g., a code allocation, an award is given. Reinforcement learning populates the lookup table by maximizing a numerical reward signal.
  • a reinforcement learning controller faces a problem and must learn the behavior of the system through trial and error interactions with the dynamic environment in order to maximize performance.
  • One way is to use statistical techniques including information feedback and dynamic programming methods to estimate the utility of taking certain actions in that environment. The controller knows its current state and performs a number of actions in each state, e.g., deciding the MCS number, power level, etc.
  • HS-DSCH scheduling routine (block 60) shown in flowchart form in Figure 8 .
  • CQI's determined by various mobiles for a base station downlink signal e.g., pilot signal, are collected by the base station (block 62).
  • the channel quality controller 36 groups the CQI's by antenna beam (block 64).
  • the scheduler 30 selects one mobile per beam for transmission over the HS-DSCH during a subsequent TTI (block 66). As explained above, one scheduling technique selects the mobile station per beam with the highest reported CQI.
  • the scheduler 30 allocates HS-DSCH radio channel resources for this each interval beam transmission using a resource allocation procedure.
  • Example allocation procedures include: dividing the resources equally amongst the beams, allocating resources in proportion to reported CQI, and allocating using a non-linear relationship (block 68). For any resource allocation procedure, it is desirable to select an optimal modulation and coding scheme (MSC) (if one can be selected) to ensure an acceptable error rate at the mobile (block 70).
  • MSC modulation and coding scheme
  • Figures 10A-10C illustrate the frame or block error rate (FER) versus the signal-to-interference-plus-noise ratio (SINR) for various allocated codes (12, 6, and 3) and for different numbers of data bits per TTI (here the TTI is 2ms). These data bits are indicated in the figure legends.
  • TFRC in these figures corresponds to CQI.
  • the figures show the nonlinear relation between the SINR, FER, and the data rate.
  • a disadvantage with using six or three codes instead of 12 codes is the loss of granularity of the switching points of different TFRCs. In fact within a given range of SINR, fewer choices of TFRC are offered.
  • the inventors performed simulations using two different types of radio propagation models to test the performance of the invention in one implementation (i.e., a closed loop mode I transmit diversity).
  • One channel model called a "pedestrian A” channel with relatively little scattering and reflection.
  • the other channel model called an "urban” channel contains considerably more scattering and reflection.
  • the simulated implementation for the invention achieved a 50% capacity gain for the pedestrian channel and approximately a 15% capacity gain for the typical urban channel.
  • each cell can be allocated a beam transmission sequence order using a list that gives the order of beams to be used for transmission. Mobile users belonging to this beam may be scheduled.
  • the beam selection is decided using a beam sequence number. For example, in Figure 2 , assuming that beam 1 is the leftmost beam and beam 5 the right-most beam seen from the base station, a simple beam transmission list could be ⁇ B1, B2, B3, B4, B5 ⁇ .
  • the beams are switched more slowly, e.g., not every TTI but rather over multiple TTIs. If there are HS-DSCH cells geographically opposite to each other, it is desirable to have the beam sequences be as orthogonal as possible to lower the probability of transmitting simultaneously on the opposite beam belonging to different cells.
  • This beam transmission sequencing approach mitigates the flashlight effect by switching beams more slowly than usual so that the interference stays constant over several intervals. At the same time, this beam sequencing approach permits high peak bit rates and provides improved overall system performance.
  • the present invention includes any spatial and/or temporal interference management scheme that eliminates the flashlight effect. By selecting an optimal resource allocation procedure, higher downlink system throughput and overall system performance are substantially improved. Smoother interference variations are introduced artificially in the network to ensure a stable network and much easier interference prediction.
  • the invention may be applied to various antenna techniques such as beam-forming, transmit diversity, etc.
  • the invention has been described in connection with what is presently considered to be the most practical and preferred embodiments.
  • the invention is not limited to the disclosed embodiments.
  • the invention is applicable whenever multiple antenna beams are employed for a transmission over a radio channel including diversity transmission schemes.
  • the invention can by applied to other various advanced antenna techniques, for instance, steered beams, closed loop transmit diversity, and situations where the mobile station instructs the base station on a beam weight to be used.
